Mail attachment problem

Ray
Hi

Can anyone help with something that has beaten me.

I am sending an email with an attachment, as per below. If I comment out the
MailAttachment line then the mail gets sent, but with it in I get an error.
Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Ray

MailMessage MyMail = new MailMessage();

string txt="this is my attachment";

MailAttachment MyAttachment = new MailAttachment( txt);

SmtpMail.SmtpSe rver = server;

SmtpMail.Send(M yMail);

If you are using .NET FW 2.0 MailAttachment is obsolete class. Use Mail.Attachment
in lue of.
Sample is there http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...ttachment.aspx

I've spent weeks trying to write a function that is simple to use for sending emails with attachments, but I my programming skills are not that advanced.
